On the night Xing Hui walked out of the police station, he issued an order: the police were to keep a constant eye on every move of the man named Zhou You.
So when You Miao, now trapped in Zhou You’s body, returned to the police station miserably to report once again that someone was trying to kill him, the police immediately reported the matter to Xing Hui.
After hearing the report, Xing Hui hung up the phone calmly. His expression remained indifferent, giving away nothing.
However, after finishing a glass of wine, he picked up his phone again and sent the driver the address of the police station, instructing him to bring the person to the top floor of the hotel, back to that same room.
The hotel operated under a membership system and only VVIP guests could stay on the top floor. Because it was property of the Shen family, the top floor was usually reserved for Shen Heng’s friends. Xing Hui was one of the long term guests.
After sending the message, Xing Hui lit another cigarette and smoked slowly, unhurried. Then he lifted his wrist and glanced at the time on his watch.
Shen Heng noticed that something seemed off about him and tapped the table in front of Xing Hui.
“Something going on?”
“Caught him,” Xing Hui replied.
Shen Heng’s interest was instantly piqued.
“Where is he?” he asked, excitement already visible in his expression. “I’ve got to see what kind of person has you thinking about him this much.”
Xing Hui exhaled a mouthful of smoke and answered frankly, “Once I get him, I’ll introduce him to you.”
Shen Heng smiled, picked up a cigarette and lit it as well. Curious, he asked, “That Omega must be stunningly beautiful, right? Like a fairy? What does his pheromone smell like?”
“Not an Omega,” Xing Hui said. “An Alpha.”
The hand Shen Heng was using to hold his cigarette froze midair.
He stared at Xing Hui’s face, which showed no sign of joking. After taking a moment to process that information, his curiosity only grew stronger.
“What’s it like sleeping with an Alpha? Don’t the pheromones repel each other? Wouldn’t you two end up fighting?”
Xing Hui’s expression looked as though he was recalling that night. The tips of his ears even seemed to turn slightly red. He cleared his throat.
“It was my rut. I don’t remember much.”
“A rut doesn’t cause amnesia…”
“Why are you talking so much?” Xing Hui cut him off, clearly unwilling to discuss what had happened in bed.
Shen Heng understood immediately.
It was Xing Hui’s first experience with that sort of thing; of course he would feel embarrassed. Seeing such an innocent side of the usually aloof Xing Hui was truly rare.
Shen Heng smiled and stopped asking further questions, though he still could not help adding, “Now I’m even more curious about what this Alpha looks like.”
Xing Hui held the cigarette between his fingers, took a drag and exhaled slowly. Through the drifting smoke, he thought about how that person had looked in bed.
What he remembered most clearly was the way the man had cried beneath him, eyes red, looking both pitiful and strangely tempting.
As for appearance, yes, he was quite good looking but Xing Hui had seen plenty of beautiful people in his life.
This one, however, was the only person who had slept with him, then gone straight to the police to accuse him of assault and even punched him in the process.
Just thinking about that whole series of actions made Xing Hui feel a tight pressure in his chest. He took several deep drags of his cigarette, his brows furrowing.
Xing Hui had already ordered someone to investigate Zhou You.
The results were not impressive.
More importantly, Zhou You had gone to great lengths to climb into his bed, so why had he then turned around, reported him to the police, punched him and run away?
What exactly was he trying to achieve?
Xing Hui, who was completely inexperienced when it came to matters of emotion, truly could not figure it out.
After pondering alone for a while, he eventually had no choice but to seek advice from Shen Heng, the seasoned veteran of the dating scene.
“What do you think he’s trying to do?” Xing Hui asked, looking at him.
Shen Heng raised an eyebrow.
“To get your attention, obviously. Otherwise why would an Alpha go out of his way to let another Alpha sleep with him and then risk his life pulling off all those dramatic stunts?”
He patted Xing Hui’s shoulder.
“You’re standing way too high up. Too many people want to climb into your bed. If someone wants to stand out, they’ve got to do something different.”
He sighed lightly.
“The world is huge. Ordinary people are always doing crazy things just to obtain something, or someone, they want.”
Lighting another cigarette, he took a drag and continued.
“Look at this situation. He risked everything and it worked. He got your attention.”
Xing Hui stubbed out the cigarette in his hand and lit another. He thought carefully about Shen Heng’s words before curling his lips into a faint smile.
“Is that so?”
Shen Heng nodded with a grin.
“Of course. Otherwise what, he’s just crazy?”
Xing Hui smoked silently, replaying Shen Heng’s explanation in his mind.
That was right.
Xing Hui could have anything he wanted. If someone dared to treat him like that, then either the person had a mental problem, or he was trying to attract Xing Hui’s attention.
Xing Hui took another drag, nudged Shen Heng’s arm and summarized his thoughts.
“So if he’s not crazy… then he’s interested in me.”
Shen Heng paused for a moment before bursting into laughter.
“With your surname being Xing, anyone who knows who you are would be interested in you.”
After saying that, he could not help laughing inwardly.
Truly a pure and innocent crown prince who had grown up surrounded by endless affection.
With the confusion in his mind finally resolved, Xing Hui felt much more relaxed. He stubbed out his cigarette and stood up.
“I’ve got something to do. I’m heading out.”
Shen Heng waved at him with a smile.
“Good luck.”
When Xing Hui arrived at the hotel, he looked at the person sleeping deeply on the bed.
He bent down slightly to take a closer look.
The man’s face was dirty. His clothes were dirty as well.
Xing Hui could not help wrinkling his nose.
They had not seen each other for just one day yet the man had ended up in such a miserable state, almost thrown into the sea to feed the fish.
Thinking about that incident made Xing Hui snort softly. He muttered to himself as though talking to the sleeping man.
“You deserve it.”
After saying that, he continued staring at the infuriating Alpha lying unconscious on the bed.
His eyelashes were long and his brows were slightly furrowed, as though he was uncomfortable yet his sleeping face looked far more obedient than when he was awake.
Xing Hui suddenly recalled the way the man had cried while clinging to him that night.
The corner of his lips curved upward unconsciously.
But when he remembered the results of the investigation, the man’s messy reputation and extensive romantic history, his expression darkened again.
That man’s performance in bed had not looked like someone with a rich love life.
Could it all have been an act?
The moment that guess surfaced, Xing Hui’s expression, which had just softened, became gloomy again. The way he looked at the sleeping man gradually turned cold.
Xing Hui lit another cigarette and sat down on the sofa, staring at the person on the bed with a frown, locked in an internal struggle.
Something about this whole situation was extremely strange.
The moment he stepped into this room, he smelled the scent of lilies, this person’s pheromones. Mixed within it was a faint trace of sweet tea, so subtle it was almost impossible to detect.
And then, instantly, his body had reacted.
Even now, sitting there smoking, Xing Hui felt like he was holding up a massive umbrella beneath his bathrobe. He tried desperately to suppress it, forcing himself not to think about anything inappropriate.
But he simply could not control it.
Originally, he had considered just throwing this guy into the ocean to feed the fish.
But glancing down at his own “large thermos flask,” Xing Hui smoked even more fiercely while frantically adjusting the setting on his inhibitor bracelet.
After finishing the cigarette, Xing Hui stood up and prepared to take a shower.
Before going to the bathroom, he grabbed a rope and tied You Miao’s legs together. He also locked the door of the room.
Only then did he feel at ease enough to enter the bathroom.
While showering, Xing Hui stared at his own body. It looked as though it was about to burst from the pressure. Even blasting it with cold water did nothing to calm it down.
He had not been drugged tonight, so this was truly strange.
Xing Hui felt troubled. If anything, the shower had only made him feel more awake.
This kind of vigorous state was something he had never experienced before. The more he thought about it, the more irritated he became.
It was all because of that reckless bastard sleeping on the bed outside.
Xing Hui breathed heavily, turned off the shower and walked out of the bathroom wearing a bathrobe.
His first glance immediately went to the bed.
And that was when he saw that the reckless bastard had woken up.
Xing Hui walked over and looked down at him from above, his gaze fierce enough to devour someone.
You Miao, already weakened by the abnormal fever burning through his body, felt completely drained. His face was flushed red.
When he looked up and saw the person he least wanted to see, it felt as though a bucket of icy water had been poured over his head.
He instantly woke up fully.
But he still remained frozen for a moment before finally sitting up and beginning to untie the rope around his legs.
Xing Hui watched him untie the rope.
Watched him run to the door.
Watched him avoid even glancing at him.
That strange, simmering fire in Xing Hui’s chest instantly surged upward, mixing with anger until it burned away his rationality.
He strode forward in large steps and grabbed the panicked You Miao.
“The door won’t open, will it?”
You Miao winced as his wrist was gripped painfully. He frowned and tried to pull his hand back but Xing Hui twisted his arm behind his back with force.
The pain made him cry out.
“Let go of me!”
Xing Hui shoved him against the wall and leaned close.
“Let go?” he said coldly. “Didn’t you go through all that trouble just to get me to sleep with you? So what kind of act are you putting on now?”
You Miao was already feeling unwell and under such rough treatment he had no strength left. He could not break free.
His whole face tightened with discomfort.
Faced with Xing Hui’s accusations, he did not know how to respond.
So he simply remained silent.
Receiving no answer only made Xing Hui angrier.
With a quick movement, he spun You Miao around so that they were facing each other. Then he grabbed his chin, forcing him to look up.
His voice was harsh and threatening.
“I asked you a question. Are you mute or deaf? Speak!”
In You Miao’s eyes, the man before him was terrifying.
He was strong and his grip hurt.
Most importantly, You Miao’s body felt extremely strange. He was burning hot all over, as if on fire. Even that place felt feverish.
Something was clearly wrong with his body.
It seemed that this was not just an ordinary fever.
You Miao’s mind felt like a pot of thick paste, sluggish and muddled. He simply couldn’t think clearly enough to figure out what illness he had come down with or how it should be treated. All he knew was that whenever someone touched him like this, a violent tremor would ripple through his body.
Even his breathing had become abnormal.
You Miao thought vaguely, could it be some kind of allergy… or maybe poisoning?
The back of his neck itched terribly, swelling and throbbing in an uncomfortable way. Could the insect that bit him have been poisonous?
And there was also a strange fragrance lingering in his senses, a faint floral scent spreading across his sense of taste. What on earth was that about?
One question after another churned through his mind, rolling endlessly like waves, making his thoughts even more chaotic. His consciousness began to blur again. His eyes grew damp as he looked at Xing Hui, trying to push him away but he couldn’t move him at all.
Left with no other choice, he forced himself to speak.
“Let go of me… I… I’m sick…”
“Sick?” Xing Hui had already caught a very clear scent of pheromones. Seeing You Miao’s state, he couldn’t help letting out a mocking laugh. “What kind of illness? The kind where you want me to do you again?”
The moment those words reached his ears, You Miao’s face burned as if it had been set on fire. The heat in his body grew even more intense.
Because just as Xing Hui finished speaking, his other hand slipped inside You Miao’s clothes.
In an instant, You Miao felt as though a surge of electricity had ignited his entire body but that intense stimulation also pushed him past the edge of reason.
With sudden force, he shoved Xing Hui away and snapped angrily, “Don’t touch me! You pervert! I’m not gay!”
The shove sent Xing Hui stumbling backward into the shoe cabinet behind him.
As an Alpha, the scent of another Alpha’s pheromones was already enough to provoke aggression. Being pushed like that brought Xing Hui’s temper dangerously close to its breaking point.
Then he saw the look of disgust in You Miao’s eyes.
In that instant, Xing Hui completely lost his patience.
He stepped forward again, pinning You Miao against the wall once more, his teeth clenched as he said harshly, “I’ve been far too nice to you.”
You Miao struggled fiercely.
“Let go of me! You disgusting pervert!” he shouted, kicking and hitting Xing Hui with everything he had.
Xing Hui’s anger finally erupted completely.
With rough movements, he seized both of You Miao’s hands and dragged him forcefully toward the bathroom.
His grip was incredibly strong. Especially for You Miao, who was already weakened and in the middle of his sensitive period, he was no match at all.
You Miao was thrown straight into the bathtub.
Water splashed violently and he inhaled a mouthful by accident, immediately choking and coughing violently.
But Xing Hui grabbed his head and forced it down into the water again.
You Miao cried out in alarm, flailing and struggling wildly. He choked on the water, his condition becoming both miserable and uncomfortable.
Xing Hui yanked his hair, forcing his head up again.
“Feeling more clear headed now?” he asked coldly.
You Miao gasped for breath, his eyes red as he glared at him stubbornly, refusing to say a single word.
For some reason, meeting those eyes, eyes that looked at him as if he were nothing more than garbage, caused the chaotic fire inside Xing Hui to explode all at once.
It surged through his entire body and rushed straight to his head, completely shattering the last remnants of his rationality.
In the next moment, his large hand clamped down on the back of You Miao’s head and he leaned forward, capturing his lips in a rough, forceful kiss.
